Tokyo Olympics: Ese Brume Dedicates Bronze Medal To Bishop Oyedepo.

Nigeria’s hope of winning a medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics games was fulfilled as Eze Brume won the Bronze Medal at the female long jump event.

The Bronze medallist, Ese Brume has dedicated her medal to Bishop David Oyedepo, founder and presiding Bishop of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, also known as Winners’ Chapel International.

In a press interview after the event Brume said she was dedicating her first Olympic medal to Bishop Oyedepo, her coach Kayode Gaya and her family.

“This medal means a lot to me. It doesn’t matter the colour. First I dedicate it to Bishop Oyedepo and I plan to decorate him with the medal later”, she said amidst sobs and wiping her tears.

“I’m super excited that I made it to the top three at the Olympics. Honestly, I can’t contend with my joy.

I have NEVER seen myself in worse situations because I was injured. But my coach kept pushing and my trust in God renewed my energy. When I break the African record, my injury was still fresh. It spurred me. And here I am today grateful to God and all those he used to make me an Olympic medallist”.

Brume leapt to her first Olympic medal with a jump of 6.97m.
